We report the case of a 21-year-old man in whom intracranial localization was discovered during initial staging at the onset of Hodgkin's disease (HD). The patient was treated by surgical excision, irradiation and chemotherapy and 50 months after completion of therapy is in remission with no evidence of HD. A brief review of the literature regarding 48 patients with intracranial Hodgkin's disease is presented.

The patient was treated by surgical excision, irradiation and chemotherapy and 50 months after completion of therapy is in remission with no evidence of HD. A brief review of the literature regarding 48 patients with intracranial Hodgkin's disease is presented.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
